A Perfect 10

On this day in 1937,
Though your Mom is now in heaven,
Mathilda held you close to her
To share the words she would murmur.
“My Mother’s love I willingly give to you
To hold ever so close when you are blue.
May 22 is very special you see 
Because, Marian, God gave you to me!”
 
In less than two decades
It was God who said
“A perfect 10 I’ll give to thee,
First Victoria then Valerie.
Kevin, Leon and Daryl come next
Then Janine, to make it six.
Next comes Sherry, Trevor and Travis,
To make it 10, is Curt the youngest.
These perfect 10 you will see
Bless the earth, and give back to me.”
